Hi,

I have followed the instructions to add a sidebar to the portfolio pages as described here:

https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/adding-sidebar-to-single-portfolio-pagepost/

HOWEVER … my client has MANY sidebars and I am unable to select a sidebar for the portfolio pages. (see attachment)

Please let me know how to assign a specific sidebar to portfolio pages.

Thank you!

Hi there,

Please add following code in child theme’s functions.php file :

add_filter( 'ups_sidebar', 'portfolio_sidebar', 9999 );

function portfolio_sidebar ( $default_sidebar ) {
if ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) return 'ups-sidebar-custom-sidebar'; //Must match the ID of your target sidebar
return $default_sidebar;
}

Hope it helps.

Hello There,

You can use Christopher’s solution by using this code in your child theme’s functions.php file

add_filter( 'ups_sidebar', 'portfolio_sidebar', 9999 );
function portfolio_sidebar ( $default_sidebar ) {
  if ( x_is_portfolio_item() ) return 'ups-sidebar-all-products-batteries'; //Must match the ID of your target sidebar
  return $default_sidebar;
}

Hope this helps. Please let us know how it goes.

Hi,

Sorry, Christopher’s solution did not help.

I am still unable to assign a specific sidebar to a specific portfolio page.

Please advise.

Thank you.

Hi There,

I checked your single portfolio item page, I could see that the side is displaying correctly:

Concorde Batteries

Could you please double check on it?

Thanks.

Yes, this is the default sidebar.

The request above is to apply individual sidebar to various portfolio pages.

I am unable to ASSIGN the sidebar to a portfolio page as I am able to do with all other pages/posts.

Thank you.

Hi there,

Adding php code in child theme’s functions.php file won’t list portfolio items under posts and pages box. It let you to choose one sidebar like ups-sidebar-all-products-batteries and display it on all portfolio pages.

Hope it helps.

Hi Christopher,

No, this doesn’t help. I am sorry that I was not clear.

How can a specific sidebar be assigned to the portfolio pages in the same way sidebars can be assigned to posts and pages.

Is there anyway to include the portfolio pages to the SIDEBAR selection?

Thank you very much.

Hello There,

That is how wordpress works by default. Portfolio item is a custom post type and it is not included on the list that you need to tick for custom sidebar to be available. It can be achieve by customization, unfortunately, it is outside the scope of our support. Thank you for understanding.
